Tennis MADISON, Plaintiff-Appellant,
v.
William M. FRENCH, Obie Marsh, Alan Guerrieri, Mid-State
Farms Cooperative Company, Inc., Showell Farms,
Incorporated, Defendants-Appellees.
No. 87-3743.

United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

Submitted Oct. 22, 1987.
Decided Dec. 15, 1987.

Tennis Madison, appellant pro se.

Joel Miller Craig, Newson, Graham, Hedrick, Bryson & Kennon, for
appellees.
Before JAMES DICKSON PHILLIPS, SPROUSE, and ERVIN, Circuit
Judges.
PER CURIAM:

A review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal
from that court's order dismissing the complaint on grounds of lack of subject
matter jurisdiction is without merit. Because the dispositive issues recently
have been decided authoritatively, we dispense with oral argument and affirm
the judgment below on the reasoning of the district court. Madison v. French,
C/A No. 87-335-D (M.D.N.C. Sept. 2, 1987). Madison's request for the
appointment of counsel is denied.

AFFIRMED.
